Motherland takes the battle of the sexes to a whole new level.

October 17th will be an entirely different kind of "Mother's Day" at Montclair State, with the American premiere of Vincent Dance Theatre's Motherland. Featured in today's Star Ledger, Dance writer Robert Johnson discusses this new and emotionally powerful dance theater work with choreographer and artistic director Charlotte Vincent.

Motherland runs Oct. 17 - 20 at the Alexander Kasser Theater. All seats are $20, and are available online at peakperfs.org, by phone at 973-655-5112, or at the Alexander Kasser Theater box office. MSU Undergrads receive one ticket to every event at no additional cost through the Performing Arts Fee, and may reserve their seats at the Kasser box office with their valid student ID.

Bonus event! - Join us after the Saturday, 10/19 performance of Motherland
as Liz Lerman, 2002 MacArthur Fellow and choreographer, leads an
interactive discussion with Charlotte Vincent, artistic director of
Vincent Dance Theatre. Lerman will facilitate the dialogue using her
Critical Response Process for constructive feedback and two-way
questions between audience and artist.
